摘要/Abstract

包括服务机器人在内的自主代理需要遵守道德价值观、法律法规和社会规范,才能与人类有效互动。其中一个重要方面是掌握人类与其携带物品之间的所有权关系,从而获得实际利益并加深对人类社会规范的理解。所提出的框架使机器人能够自主或通过用户互动来学习物品所有权关系。自主学习部分基于人-物互动(HOI)检测,机器人通过识别人-物互动之间的相关性来获取物品所有权知识。交互式学习组件允许用户与机器人进行自然交互,使用户能够通过向机器人展示物品来证明物品的所有权。学习过程分为四个阶段,以应对在现实世界中改变物品所有权所带来的挑战。虽然所有权关系学习的许多方面仍有待探索,但本研究旨在探索和设计服务机器人物品所有权学习的一般方法,以了解其适用性和稳健性。在今后的工作中,我们将通过案例研究来评估拟议框架的性能。

Autonomous agents, including service robots, require adherence to moral values, legal regulations, and social norms to interact effectively with humans. A vital aspect of this is the acquisition of ownership relationships between humans and their carrying items, which leads to practical benefits and a deeper understanding of human social norms. The proposed framework enables the robots to learn item ownership relationships autonomously or through user interaction. The autonomous learning component is based on Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection, through which the robot acquires knowledge of item ownership by recognizing correlations between human-object interactions. The interactive learning component allows for natural interaction between users and the robot, enabling users to demonstrate item ownership by presenting items to the robot. The learning process has been divided into four stages to address the challenges posed by changing item ownership in real-world scenarios. While many aspects of ownership relationship learning remain unexplored, this research aims to explore and design general approaches to item ownership learning in service robots concerning their applicability and robustness. In future work, we will evaluate the performance of the proposed framework through a case study.
